1) You can't just reset all the accounts; hundreds of accounts have played 2k1, by resetting them all you'd be making a lot of people unhappy should someone return and find their stuff missing.

Yeah, you just can't reset everyone, that pissed off a lot of people when it happened on Classic. Though something DRASTIC needs to be done to pull 2001 out of this hole.

2) There are very few NPC Test levels anymore, sorry. I think that there are three, tops. Maybe four. Two were made by STEFAN.
Wouldn't know about this. Things need to be tested before they get put up, all is well as long as it's not abused.

Quote:

3) Why fire all the existing staff? That does nothing for the server, simply ruins its potential.
Yeah, it'll just hurt things in the long run. You need to find out who is screwing up and who isn't putting in their part, and get rid of them.

Quote:

4) Yup, shut down playerworlds for no reason whatsoever. Great idea, Einstein.
This is where I have to disagree with you. You must look at this at a wider view. There are about 6-7 PWs that don't make it past the 5 player mark. Why should we have PWs that no one uses? Answer is that we shouldn't, they are just taking up space. Why should Stefan keep a server up that no one plays?

Quote:

5) You'd fire staff if they played the game? What the hell?
Didn't quite see him say that. I thought he was talking about strict guildlines or something. Oh well, rules are needed to keep the staffers in line, the harder the rules, the better.

1) Because there ARE people who play those servers, scarily enough, just not in any large quantity.

2) I quote, from him:

It's what I would do if I were manager, even though I might keep existing staff if they proved to be good and did their job instead of playing.

1.Actually, as I look at it, there are rarely people playing on those servers. If the player count is above 0, 50% of the time, it's just the staffers there. Why should Stefan keep something up and waste space on something that doesn't get any players or 5 player max on it? Obviously if there aren't any people playing it, or literally a couple people playing it, there is something wrong.

2. He might have meant playing around, but hey, I'm not a mind-reader.

fun ways to revamp 2k1:

fix the bomy system: make wild bomies that can be taken as pets, they would be given to you for their 'rite of passage' or something of the sort. there should also be bomy breeding, but that would be hard for the current staff to make :(. Bomy fighting should be released as well, so people have a reason to run around with the bomy.

more emphasis on the kingdom story: graal2001 has a great kingdom storyline, but there isn't much emphasis on it with the current levels. there should be the hananoki village ruins, a treetop villiage that was destroyed when Dustari burned the original Santerrian. The forests should be filled with karakaze bandit npcs ready to steal your money, and the bars should be filled with pirates ready to pick a fight.

at first my guess was they were gonna do p2p, get people money and then decide its losing buisness and make it free again. heck thats what i'd i done ;)

If staff want to play, that's all well and good. If they want to upload NPCs to play with or mess with their RCs, that isn't. Also, taking down playerworlds is a GOOD thing. Think of it; there are some good LATs on the less-populated servers. Where will they go? The bigger ones. And they will make them better. If you fire all the staff, what is that going to hurt? You can hire back the ones that are good. As for account resets; I had 15 hearts and a whole lot of old NPCs on classic when I got reset. Do you think I was happy? The one thing I DID notice was that attitudes were not "OMG YOU ARE ALL NEWBIES!!" anymore, everyone was having the problem. Everyone was in the same boat. It brought people closer together. It was like it used to be...you get a bunch of people together and you do a quest. People worked together. I enjoyed the time after classic was reset more than when I had my 15 hearts. So did alot of people.

Did anyone READ my post?

All I have to say about Providence is wait a month after the overworld has been released then see how many people are on it. Hopefully it will be out this friday. *crosses fingers*

As for good Lat's going to bigger servers. Thats not necessarly true. I quit G2k1 and went back to Providence. If something happens there. I have no further plans for working on any other servers. If prov sinks I might go to another server. But then again I might just leave all together guess I'll cross that bridge if and when I come to it. What I'm getting at is these good lat's work where they want to. Alot of them dont want to work on a big server.

heh. I'm insane. I always come up with some weird idea at one time or another. I think Moon God would pay the fee because he'd be one of the few that will pobably pay it and all the other playerworlds will be like screw this. Then that would mean a lot more players coming to N-Pulse, and a lot more people he would be able to hire to improve the playerworld.
But that was one of my more insane comments. Heck Konidias is the only one to respond to that comment. Makes me wonder what everyone else thinks.
heh. I'm insane. ;) :D :eek:

Anyways it seems some people agree with me that some playerworlds should be removed since they barely get any playerworlds.

Look at this playerlist.
Right now it's about 8:00 p.m. eastern time here in Florida.
The peak time for players that live on the eastcoast. You westcoast people would have to check it out at your main peak playing time to compare.


I wouldn't include Atlantis since the people who play there play at a completely different time. You would have to check their playerlist around 6:00 a.m. eastern time to see their playerlist.
Above Atlantis was Babylon with 7 people, and Enigma Graal with 9. The rest got 15+ players on.

Don't even think about moving G2k1 to Classic!! I swear I'll Slap whoever suggests it. Also I wish Prov was back as Gold. I want some or of it. I like it, I love it, I want some more of it. In the Big rock candy mountains! It'll feel so empty without me!

Note: The last four sentences where just filler.
